Artist's Comments

As the reflection was a big part in what I wanted to produce in this image. I wanted the rest of the face to be just as important in painting information.

This was the only Image I have done so far not using flash photography to paint from.

Daily Deviation

Given 2008-09-15

Cathy by ~Andrewnewtonart reflects the artist's concept of "enhanced realism" that cannot be summoned by photography alone... the richness of information on the skin and the attention given to the reflective surfaces gives a compelling result that goes a step beyond hyperrealism.

Impeccable Job capturing the detail in this piece. the lighting is perfect, and the reflection over the eyes are amazing.

I am literally stunned by your ability to capture detail, all of your pictures are phenomenal.

Tight and technically solid rendering in all ways (somewhat photo-real, yet expressively loose). I like the crop and composition choice. Excellent capture of the essense of her gaze in both her eyes and reflection (literally and figuratively)- there's a sense of time in this.

I'm curious about the scale (I imagine these as large works, in the tradition of Chuck Close photorealism...)
:iconjohnpaulthornton:
This really works.

Bravo!

Great job on getting the texture of the aged skin and all the colors in the fleshtones are great. Its always a pleasure to discover another traditional artist!
